Research Abstract

We hypothesized that oligodendrocyte loss in the juvenile period may influence the onset of schizophrenia, and we focused on the function of Olig2, play an important role in the differentiation of oligodendrocyte. To test the hypothesis, we used double transgenic mice, which can reduce the expression of Olig2 in the juvenile period. The results were that there have not significant differences in our experimental status. We thought that the double transgenic mice were not performed sufficient recombination in our experimental status
